    Founder and owner of Michinoku Pro Wrestling
    NWA Middleweight World Champion (1999-2003)

Why he might be annoying:

    He lost a campaign for governor of Iwate Prefecture (2007).
    He formed a rock band, Crazy Crew, with two other Japanese wrestlers.
    He allegedly appeared in a porn film, but since the star of the porno never removes his mask, he was able to deny that it was him in the film.
    He was arrested for assault after kicking and grabbing a man who had taken his picture with a cellphone camera (1996).
    He was convicted of using campaign funds to pay the expenses of Michinoku Pro Wrestling (2014).

Why he might not be annoying:

    The assault charges were dismissed after he apologized.
    He defeated Ultimo Dragon to unify eight titles into the first J-Crown Championship (1996).
    He twice suffered skull fractures in the ring but finished the matches.
